Breast Health

Breast health concerns deserve prompt answers from trusted specialists. That’s precisely what you’ll find at Virginia Mason Franciscan Health. We deliver comprehensive care for a broad range of issues, including noncancerous conditions such as benign breast lumps, nipple discharge, high-risk lesions and breast pain. You also have access to preventive services, including mammograms and inherited breast cancer risk assessments.

If there are signs of cancer, our highly regarded breast surgeons work with other specialists to deliver comprehensive care. We offer a range of breast cancer services, including medical and surgical treatments.  

Our commitment to exceptional care and outcomes has earned some locations prestigious recognition from the National Accreditation Program for Breast Centers (NAPBC). Select locations also maintain accreditation from the American College of Surgeons Commission on Cancer. Our breast health program is one of the few in Washington state to maintain both accreditations.

Take our breast cancer questionnaire and learn whether you’re at higher risk for breast cancer and what what you can do to reduce your risk.

Breast surgeons with a special interest in noncancerous conditions and cancer prevention guide your care. Our experts get to the source of your breast health concerns and provide personalized recommendations reflecting the latest research. Meet our team.

Highlights of our program include: 

• Multidisciplinary approach: Our breast surgeons collaborate with imaging technologists, fellowship-trained radiologists and nurse practitioners. Your care team also includes cancer genetic counselors. We work together to tailor services so that you have an exceptional experience. 

• Precise, accurate imaging: Whether you need a mammogram, MRI or ultrasound, you can count on us for high-quality scans that meet or exceed national standards. Many locations maintain American College of Radiology (ACR) accreditation for many breast imaging types. Radiologists specializing in breast health and breast cancer screening interpret the results.  

• Expertise in noncancerous (benign) disease: Our team excels in detecting common and rare types of benign breast disease. If you need treatment, breast surgeons who maintain excellent outcomes tailor services to your needs.  

• Focus on prevention: If you have a family history of breast cancer, we determine your individual disease risk and deliver services supporting early detection and treatment. Get more information about hereditary breast cancer risk assessment and high-risk services.
